The Ames Figure Skating Club purchases ice times specificly to support the Figure Skating sport. This Club Ice time is available to all Ames Club Members and Associate Club Members throughout the skating year. Club Members have three options when considering the purchase of Club Ice Contracts:
Club Ice provides skaters with addition time to focus on their figure skating skills and work one-on-one with their coach. In addition to practice time, ice contracts and walk-ons can include weekly classes; see the Club Ice Schedule below for specific times. Each time a Skater takes they ice they are asked to sign in to the Club computer with their unique PIN before taking the ice. The Club computer is located on the ice during Club Ice time; see an Ice Monitor if you have any questions. It is important that skaters wear the designated lesson and music vests while on Club ice. Lesson vests are used while skaters are in a lesson with a coach and music vests should be worn when skaters are playing their program music. Ice Monitors will be on hand during each Club Ice session should you have any questions. |
